Hi - my brakes are in bits - I've had the rotors turned - and I can't find a shop manual with torque settings for the two pairs of bolts (one larger, the other smaller) securing the front calipers on my 2002 Legacy wagon. Does anyone have the values handy?
Thanks!
- Rick
Values??? We don' _need_ no stinkin' values!!! ;-)
Rick, get 'em as tight as you reasonably can with your 1/2in ratchet/socket/extension. This probably equates to something in the range of 50-60ftlb unless you are uncommonly strong.
Just 'cause I'm a nice guy, I looked up the numbers for a 2K2 Impreza for you (I _have_ an Impreza book . . .); Legacy numbers are probably fairly similar.
Caliper to support (carrier): 19.5ftlb (The smaller bolts you refer to?) Carrier to hub: 59ftlb (The large ((14mm?)) bolts you typically remove to pull the caliper? Insert from the back side.)
